Abstract

See full text

A workholding assembly for releasably holding a work piece includes a master variable-volume fluid chamber disposed between a machine and the machine's axially-movable draw bar such that the workholding assembly converts the mechanical axial force/movement of the draw bar into fluid pressure/fluid flow. The resulting fluid pressure operates a fluid-driven gripping assembly such as a radial-piston-based hydraulic collet assembly or a diaphragm-based hydraulic gripping assembly. The hydraulic collet assembly may be a quick-change assembly that enables an operator to quickly and easily change between differently sized or shaped collets.
